Pizza boxes, while they do hold food, can be recycled. Made of corrugated cardboard, pizza boxes are a high-grade material that moves quickly through the market. However, we cannot accept pizza boxes soaked in grease and covered with cheese. If the box has lots of grease and cheese, tear that part off and throw it away (or compost it) and recycle the remaining part. And please wipe away any sauce or crumbs before tossing the box in the bin. See similar questions...

The most common problem we encounter is with what's called the 'tracking' control on customers' VCRs. Tracking aligns the videotape with the control heads on the VCR, correcting for differences between the machine the tape was originally recorded on and the VCR it is being played on. If tracking is out of adjustment, you'll see lines or distortion on the screen. On older VCRs and on professional models, there will usually be a tracking knob or dial on the control panel.

We will have to start exporting our waste to other authorities, which will incur additional costs. See similar questions...
